#protect trans people
transmasc opinions on jkr are extremely valuable actually, specifically transmascs from the UK. her “save the poor lost autistic girls!!!” bullshit is targeting transmascs specifically. transmascs are literally the intended targets of the laws she is working to get put in place, laws that will and already have killed transmascs. boost UK transmascs voices and stop telling them they aren’t the ones being impacted by this shit.
UK transmasc here!
She’s literally caused such bulllshit for transmascs here in terms of transition. First, her money donations and fearmongering led to puberty blockers being stopped for 2 years for trans kids (after a court case involving a transmasc minor, who argued they had Gillick competence. JK and others campaigned against this case, which if it went in favour of transphobes- would have removed Gillick competence for *everyone*. Gillick competence is the reasoning vital to young teens who are pregnant and may seek an abortion etc.).
It was because of the pandemic mainly, but in 2020 we lost all of the transmasc bottom surgeons in the UK. They were drafted to help covid. When it came time to finding replacements, JK and terf groups kicked up such a fuss and culture war about “young (afab) teens ‘mutilating’ themselves” that the process was unnecessarily lengthened and so many trans men were left in limbo with half finished neophalluses in multi-stage phalloplasty.
JK Rowling uses her voice to attack us ans further a culture war that seeks to prevent transmascs from transitioning at all. Its scary times and I wish more people took transmascs in general seriously. And UK trans people seriously.
